Deal or No Deal... you decide!

In her 'version of the truth', Kate McCann continues to perpetuate the myth of the plea bargain she claims to have received from the Portuguese police. She and her spokespersons are careful not to directly accuse the police themselves and say that the 'deal' came via their lawyer, Carlos Pinto de Abreu.

Mrs McCann's lawyer told her that police would offer her a two-year sentence if she pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of her daughter.

The plea-bargain offer was put to the McCanns by their lawyer, Carlos Pinto de Abreu.

"...the proposal came indirectly via our lawyer."

"They tried to get her to confess....by offering her a deal through her lawyer......we can guarantee you a two-year jail sentence or even less."

Philomena McCann

"....during the police interview....senior police officers told her lawyer that that if she were to confess.....they would probably consider a....sentence of three to four years..."

Clarence Mitchell

No deal was offered because it is simply not possible under Portuguese law, as explained by Carlos Pinto de Abreu himself the following day... "it was all a misunderstanding."
